Poor execution aside, people disparage it as a kind of cliched and unoriginal tale of an evil fascist's manipulative rise to power... the Democracy Dies in Darkness of the movies... but how many prominent fictional examples of that do we actually have, much less so widely known? Not a lot actually!

Regrettably unwatchable but the space politics was actually pretty good

Right? And if you just look at the prequels in outline, it is a solid and insightful tale of republican decline.
